Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all
information collections require approval
under the PRA. We may not conduct, or

respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize

helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,

While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: The National Park Service
Organic Act, 54 U.S.C. 100101(a) et seq.,
requires that the NPS preserve national
parks for the enjoyment, education, and
inspiration of this and future
generations. In order to monitor
resources and bear management in areas
managed by the National Park Service
and to enhance the safety of future
visitors, we are requesting to revise
OMB Control Number: 1024–0281 to
include a new system-wide form for
bear sightings and encounters by
visitors in National Parks.
Bear sighting data provide park
managers with important information
used to determine bear movements,
habitat use, and species distribution.
This information is important for
backcountry management and planning,
field research planning, and educational
outreach for visitors. Bear-human
interaction data is vital to
understanding bear responses to people,
detecting changes in bear behavior, and
identifying areas of high bear-human
conflict. Obtaining immediate
information on bear-human conflicts
allows managers to respond promptly to
mitigate further conflicts. Proactive
mitigation includes notifying other
backcountry users, issuing advisories or
recommendations, or issuing closures to
prevent further conflicts and maintain
public safety. Glacier Bay National Park
and Preserve currently uses Form 10–
405 ‘‘Tatshenshini—Alsek River Bear
Report and Form 10–406 ‘‘Bear
Information Management Report’’ to
record bear sightings when a bear enters
a camp, approaches the group, damages
gear, obtains food, and/or acts in an
aggressive or threatening manner
towards the group. We are requesting to
add a new system-wide form to this
collection. Proposed form 10–407
‘‘National Park Service Bear Sighting
and Encounter Reports’’ will be
available in any areas managed by the
National Park Service where bear
sightings may occur.
Title of Collection: National Park
Service Bear Sighting and Encounter
Reports.
OMB Control Number: 1024–0281.
Form Number: 10–405,
‘‘Tatshenshini—Alsek River Bear
Report,’’ 10–406, ‘‘Bear Information
Management Report’’, and 10–407

and Encounter Reports.’’

Determinations
Pursuant to NAGPRA and its
implementing regulations, and after
consultation with the appropriate
Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, Central Washington
University has determined that:
• The two cultural items described
above are reasonably believed to have

human remains at the time of death or
later as part of the death rite or
ceremony and are believed, by a
preponderance of the evidence, to have
been removed from a specific burial site
of a Native American individual.
• There is a relationship of shared
group identity that can be reasonably
traced between the cultural items and
the Confederated Tribes and Bands of
the Yakama Nation.
